Detailed Solution

Graphite can not be classified as ionic solid as graphite is not made up of ions. It is made up of carbon atoms covalently bonded to three other carbon atoms so, it is a covalent solid. Since, the formation of covalent bond occurs throughout the crystal therefore, it is a type of network solid. Due to the presence of free electrons, graphite is also classified as conducting solid.
